4Haue all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eate vp my people as they eate bread, and call not vpon the Lord. 5There were they in great feare; for God is in the generation of the righteous. 6You haue shamed the counsell of the poore; because the Lord is his refuge. 7O that the saluation of Israel were come out of Sion! when the Lord bringeth backe the captiuitie of his people, Iacob shall reioyce, and Israel shalbe glad.
